Summary
Portofino， Italia， 1943。 La joven Elodie se baja de un barco， demasiado aterrorizada como para sortear el control de soldados alemanes， hasta que un desconocido sale en su ayuda。
Apenas unos meses antes， Elodie era una prometedora chelista en Verona， pero cuando el régimen de Mussolini asesina a su familia， se unirá a la resistencia， encabezada por Luca， un apasionado librero。 Aunque a medida que la ocupación avanza， Elodie se verá forzada a huir。
En Portofino， el joven doctor Angelo Rosselli， carga con dolorosos secretos y vive acongojado por la culpa。 Pero la llegada de Elodie despertará en él un algo que pensaba haber perdido para siempre。

Otro bellísimo libro de Alyson Richman。 Con este ya llevo 4 leídos de ella y puedo decir que son uno mejor que el otro。 El nivel de investigación que desarrolla Richman es abrumador。 Su estilo de prosa es maravillosa。 Y sus historias siempre basadas en hechos reales son realmente magníficas。 Muchas ⭐️ siempre para todos sus libros。

La historia merece ser contada: los jóvenes en la resistencia italiana en la Segunda Guerra Mundial。 Los partisanos jóvenes。 Elodie u si virtuosismo musical y si virtuosa memori。 Lucas y su librería。 Entrañables。 La música como hilo conductor es potente。 La técnica narrativa， sin embargo， está llena de lugares comunes。 Una escritura llana y a veces empalagosa。

Turns out this is my 3rd book by Alyson Richman - who knew？！ I've rated each book a 2 - just ok。 It seems her books don't really get me going。 Turns out this is my 3rd book by Alyson Richman - who knew？！ I've rated each book a 2 - just ok。 It seems her books don't really get me going。 。。。more

Another older book on my shelves but oh so good。 As the story starts a young scared girl steps off the boat in Portofino。 A stranger steps forward and claims her as his cousin。 He is the town doctor and he puts her up in his home and our story starts。 Elodie is a cellist in Verona but the Fascists are in power and the Germans are advancing。 She becomes part of a Resistance group and meets Luca who will become the love of her life。 Angelo， the doctor， has a sad past of his own。 Racked by guilt， h Another older book on my shelves but oh so good。 As the story starts a young scared girl steps off the boat in Portofino。 A stranger steps forward and claims her as his cousin。 He is the town doctor and he puts her up in his home and our story starts。 Elodie is a cellist in Verona but the Fascists are in power and the Germans are advancing。 She becomes part of a Resistance group and meets Luca who will become the love of her life。 Angelo， the doctor， has a sad past of his own。 Racked by guilt， he has lived the life of a recluse， work his only outlet。 Can these two wounded people help each other heal？ I loved this beautiful story。 。。。more

Well written as a story of two people whose lives were torn apart during WWII。 A bit formulaic but still a good read。

This review has been hidden because it contains spoilers。 To view it， click here。 I was originally going to give this book 4 stars， but the more I thought about it， I decided to downgrade to 3 stars。 80% of the book was great but then…all of a sudden we’re to believe a new romance has sprouted out of nowhere？ It all wrapped up so quickly wich left me wondering: wait…。did that really just happen？

This is such a romantic novel， I was at the edge of tears so many times， finding myself in WWII， since her writing was so perfectly done。As I just read a book from WWII in my country， it was nice to read the story of a rebel who wanted the war to end in the heated part of it。 We learned a lot about women in Canada in school， but never heard about other countries’。And I insist again on how well Alyson Richman writes， since she described a woman who was dirty for days， then took a warm bath， and f This is such a romantic novel， I was at the edge of tears so many times， finding myself in WWII， since her writing was so perfectly done。As I just read a book from WWII in my country， it was nice to read the story of a rebel who wanted the war to end in the heated part of it。 We learned a lot about women in Canada in school， but never heard about other countries’。And I insist again on how well Alyson Richman writes， since she described a woman who was dirty for days， then took a warm bath， and felt so much well being from her being clean， so I immediately went to take a shower to feel the same！ 。。。more

Ook al heb ik al boeken rond het zelfde onderwerp gelezen （verzetstrijders die zich inzetten om tijdens de oorlog gecodeerde boodschappen en informatie rond te dragen） toch greep het me aan en kon ik het niet wegleggen。 Misschien omdat de rode draad van liefde en hoop toch tijdloos is en iedereen hier ten alle tijde nood aan heeft。

This is the story of Elodie a cellist in Italy during WWII。 She joins the resistance and uses her music to send codes。 Her whole world is based on her music。

I enjoyed the writing， which is often lyrical， and the characters。 Yes， I know there are a few time facts that are wrong， but the story， based on true events， is good and believable。

ספר מקסים， מרתק המספר את סיפורם של שתי דמויות הנפגשות בזמן מלהע ה-2 באיטליה。 מתואר הזמן תחת השלטון הפשיסטי ולאחריו הכיבוש הנאצי。 סיפור המראה שגם לאחר שמאבדים אהבה ראשונה יש סיכוי לאהבה נוספת， יקרה לא פחות。 מומלץ！

Richman is a gifted novelist。 This historical fiction novel set during WWII in Italy under the fascist regime is totally engrossing。 The imagery that describes music， the Italian countryside， and the characters thoughts， dreams and fears is beautiful！ The historical details and the well plotted， moving story combine to make this another （all of her novels that I have read have been excellent） very well written read。 Highly recommended。

Interesting story that kept me going， but there were timing discrepancies and a rather contrived set of circumstances bringing Elodie and Angelo to their chance meeting。 But it was an enjoyable read， nevertheless。

No doubt， Ms。 Richman is a beautiful writer -- it keeps me reading， even when the book turns out to be something I really did not want to read about （read: WWII）。 Clearly painstakingly researched with a tremendous amount of historical information and some characters pulled from real life。The entwined stories are engaging， and I always wanted to read just one more chapter！ So， full kudos to Ms。 Richman's storycraft。Reading about the tragic love stories within Elodie & Angelo's respective lives wa No doubt， Ms。 Richman is a beautiful writer -- it keeps me reading， even when the book turns out to be something I really did not want to read about （read: WWII）。 Clearly painstakingly researched with a tremendous amount of historical information and some characters pulled from real life。The entwined stories are engaging， and I always wanted to read just one more chapter！ So， full kudos to Ms。 Richman's storycraft。Reading about the tragic love stories within Elodie & Angelo's respective lives was so well written and I learned a bit of history -- that is not part of the usual US WWII curriculum -- and revisited the brutality and viciousness of that horrible war， which， quite frankly， would have led me to avoid the book entirely had I been aware of the historical content in advance。 That said， I learned so much about the Italian resistance and about how a minority， motivated purely by hatred and greed can destroy the lives of so many people。Three stars only because I can't unread the fates of so many characters -- I even suffered over the fates of the musical instruments。 。。。more

Maybe 3。5 because of some annoying plot- holes/ mistakes- but I really liked the first half of the book， so…
